1. Heater must be properly installed before operation.
2. Turn power to heater on at main switch panel. Rotate the
thermostat knob fully clockwise. This should energize the
heating elements and the fan, causing air to flow from the air
discharge at the openings in the bottom of the grille.
3. After the discharge air has become warm, rotate the thermo-
stat knob to the desired position to obtain room comfort.
noTe: For best results, the heater should be left “ON” constant-
ly during the heating season as the thermostat, when properly
set, will maintain the desired temperature. In the full counter-
clockwise position the heater will remain off until the room tem-
perature drops well below freezing.
How To reset over -Temperature Safety Control:
Your heater is equipped with a manual reset thermal limit safety
control that will automatically turn the heater off to prevent a fire
if the heater overheats. This control is located on the fan panel
assembly between the element and fan blade and marked
“reSeT”. The red reset button can be seen through the front
grille when the heater is installed. To reset, allow the heater to
cool, then push the red button that is visible through the hole in
the fan panel. The heater should immediately return to normal
operation.
Special note: In addition to the over-temperature safety control,
this heater is provided with a back-up thermal fuse (one shot)
that will permanently shut the heater off if for some reason the
over-temperature safety control should not function as intended.
If this thermal fuse activates, the heater will not reset and must
be repaired by a qualified repair person.
